Editorial note
The Alcatel G280 Duo stands out with its wireless design that offers great freedom of movement, ideal for use in various spaces around the home. With an indoor range of 50 m and an outdoor range of 300 m, this phone allows you to stay connected even at a distance, which is particularly convenient for large houses or gardens. The built-in speaker ensures exceptional sound quality, thus enhancing the listening experience during conversations. Additionally, the ringtone customization features and VIP groups make it easier to manage important calls. However, this product has some notable drawbacks. The lack of a built-in answering machine can be problematic for users wanting to effectively manage their missed calls. Furthermore, the absence of intercom features may limit communication between handsets, making its use less practical in certain family or professional situations. The monochrome screen, while functional, may reduce visual appeal and readability compared to models with color screens. Finally, although the phone offers a maximum range of 300 m outdoors, the indoor range limited to 50 m may pose issues in larger spaces. Regarding performance, the Alcatel G280 Duo provides satisfactory daily use, particularly thanks to its impressive battery life with 100 hours on standby and 10 hours of talk time. Its design, while modern and functional, could be improved with a color screen for better visual appeal. Overall, the product is quite easy to use, but it is not specifically designed for elderly people, which may limit its accessibility for this audience.Score details
